The Individual
or the
Trust Company
for Trustee.
Where an individual is appointed
to act as executor or trustee, the
duty of fulfilling the office is some
times very seriously interfered with
because of personal interests.
It often happens that an individual
executor is not qualified by experi
ence to act advantageously and
economically, whereas in the trust
company, trained officials accus
tomed to work of this character,
give personal attention to all details.
Then again there is a possi
bility of the individual, owing to
inexperience or lack of knowledge,
yielding to the temptation to em
ploy the funds or properties in his
charge in hazardous investments
with results disastrous to the estate.
The Trust Company
protects your estate against
such risks.

CONFINED IN FILTHY CELL
Engineer Pittnian, Captured by Ma
drir Forces, Maltreated.
William Pittman, the young Amer
lean mining engineer who was
captured by President Madriz' forces
while he was laying mines in
the recent battle at Plueflelds, has
been maltreated. Jose De Olivares,
American consul at Managua, who
visited Mr. Pittman receutly, re
ported to the state department that
Pittman had been confined in a filthy
cull and deprived of food. Mr. Oli
vares reports that Pittman was re
moved from Bluefields on July 4.
Pittman told him that on the trip his
captors had failed to provide 1,1m with
food and that he was left altogether
dependent for subsistence on tbe char
ity of fellow travelers.
Upon his arrived at Managua, he
was thrown Into a cell 5 feet wide and
ti feet long in a crowded prison. At
the time Mr. Olivares visited Pitt
man in his little cell at the Managua
jail Pittman was not being furnished
food by tho prison authorities and
was In starving condition.
As soon at. the consul learned of
I'll tman's conditions he made vigor
ous representations to Senor Madriz,
president of the defacto government
In Western Nicaragua, protesting
against the treatment accorded the
prisoner. Mr. Olivares reminded
Senor Madriz that he had promised to
treat. Pittman with consideration. Con
sul Olivares demanded that Pittman
be removed to a larger and cleaner
cell. Thin demand was granted by
Madriz, who also agreed to allow Con
sul Olivares to furnish Pittman with
an adequate supply of food and a
sleeping couch.
Senor Madriz informed Consul Oli
vares that no definite Action regard
ing Pitinvin had been determined up
on by the Madriz faction. Mr. Oli
vares, however, has been informed by
the department to keep in communica
tion with Pittman and Insist that he
Lo treated propeily.
NEWPORT AGAINST DIVORCE

here marrying divorced people has

th y will not perform a ceremony of
marriage if either purty has been di
vorced. lleccntly a couple from New York
applied to several minister to perform
a marrl.'ige ceremony and tho right

COL. GUFFEY ASKS RECEIVER
Asset Estimated at $17,000,000, Lia
billties at $7,000,000.
1 he business affairs of Colonel
James M. Guffey of Pittsburg, Pa..
Pennsylvania member of the Demo
cratic national committee and one ol
the best known oil men of the country,
were placed In the hands of a re
ceiver. The assets of Colonel Guffey are
estimated at $17,000,000, his liabilities
at less than $7,000,000.- Inability to
realize on his assets which consist
largely of coi l lands in West Virginia
is said to be the reason for Mr. Guf
fey's embarrassment.
The proceedings when made public
last night caused somewhat of a sen
sation. John Daley one of Mr. Guf
ley's creditors and a former business
partner, went Into comon pleas court
No. 4 and asked for a receiver for the
oil and coal king.
John S. Wlltard of Pittsburg was!
appointed receiver and was placed
under $100,n0 bond by the court,
the American Security company of
New York furnishing tho bond. Col
onel Guffty bsued a statement ex
pressing regret that it had become
necessary that hlu affairs be placed In
the hands of a receiver but It would
afford protection to himself as well as
to all his creditors.
"My assets are more than double
the amount of my obligations and 1
do not expect tho receivership to con
tinue for any great length of time."
saW Mr. Guffey.
It is set. forth in the receivership
papers that GiitTey Is perhaps the larg
est holder of the West Virginia coal
lands iu the country, his holdings in
that state alone being 136.700 acres.
About three years since, or previous
to the panic, Colonel GufTey invested
hcnvily in coal lands there and It is
thought that fils has In the main been
responsible for his troubles.
This property is said to he worth
at least $3,000,000, containing about
two billion tons of coal and at the
Guffey offices it was estimated that u
profit of 1 per cent per ton on
this coking coal would total a profit of
If2,000,000 to the Guffey Interests.
The receiverbhlp bill filed alleged that
Colonel Guffey has not the ready
money with which to meet claims of
creditors who have threatened to sell
his collateral. These creditors are
understood to be banks In Pittsburg,
Philadelphia and other parts of Penn
sylvania. The Pittsburg man who began as a
poor boy who took a hand in Penn
sylvan la politics quite early in life
and for years has been acknowledged
as the leader of the Democracy in this
state. His pocket book was long and
always open.
He came Into national prominence
in politics in 1891 when he was elect
ed Democratic national committee
man from Pennsylvania, replacing
William F. Harrlty.
DEAD MAN DRIVES HOSRES
Jesse Smith of Brighton Succumb to
Heat on Speedway but Holds
Reins 20 Minutes.
While driving a team of horses on
the llrlghton ppeedway at Boston,
Mass., Jesse Smith of Drighton
was overcome by the heat and died.
He continued to hold the reins of the
horses for fully 20 minutes after
death, the animals galloping a mile
and a half before they were Mopped
Motorcycle park policemen noticed
the body swaying in the sear., but,
thinking that the driver was asleep
followed for a short distance. The
noise from the puffing engines of the
motorcycles frightened the horses, for
they commenced to gallop, swerved
from the road and crashed through a
fence. The policeman ran to 1 lie spot
and discovered that Smith had been
dead for some time.
NEW COUNTERFEIT FOUND
Secret Service Warns Against Fraudu
lent $10 Gold Certificate.
The discovery of the existence of a
new counterfeit $10 gold certificate
has been announced in Washington
by John K. V ilkie, chief of the secret
service division of the treasury de
partment. The certificate Is repre
sented to be of the act of July 12,
188Z, series of 1901, and bears the
check letter "D," plate No. 150, the
signature of W. T. Vernon, legist er
of the treasury, and I.ee McClung,
treasurer of the United States, and
the portrait of Hillegas,
The note Is from a photographic
plate printed on bond paper In which
tho coloring of seal, serial numbers
nnd back anieurs to be a brownish-
red waterproof ink. The silk fiber is
imitated by red and blue ink marks
The counterfeit appeared first in Ken
lucky. "CRUSH W.J. BRYAN"
Nebraska Democratic Leader Will
Try to Shelve the "Peerless One."
"Crush W. J. Bryan' Is the word
sent out from the Democratic lead
ers to all count k'S of the state where
conventions have not been held. Not
a single Bryan man is to be placed on
delegations regardless of the Instruc
tions given the delegates by the coun
ty conventions.
The poor showing made by Bryan
and bis county option scheme In Sat
urday's county conventions was so
surprising to Hie Insurgents that they
have determined to rid themselves of
the "peerless leader."
Special effort will be made in tho
counties yet to hold conventions to
prevent the naming of a single Bryan
sympathizer. Bryan is not to be placed
upon a single committee.
STILLEVADESJUST1CE
Scotland Yard Unable to Unravel
Crippen Murder.
Analysis of Woman's Organ I Now
Being Made In Order Find Out If
Poison Had Been Administered to
the Singer Two Other Murder In
London and the Police Are Unabl
to Catch the Criminal Police
Think Crippen I Still In England.
Ixmdon, July 19. Dr. Danford
Thomas, coroner, began an Inquest
over what Is left of the body of Belle
Elmore, the music hall singer, which
was found last Wednesday In the
cellar of the house which she occu
pied with her husband, Dr. Hawley
Crippen, in Hilldrop Crescent, North
London.
Dr. Thomas told the Jury that the
remains were supposedly those ot
Mrs. Crippen. There was not, he
said, a great deal of evidence to lay
letore the Jury and it would be neces
sary to adjourn the Inquiry as an an
ulysis of the organs is now being
made in order to find out if poison
had been administered to the singer.
The police and the Scotland Yard
detectives are still without the slight
est clue as to the whereabouts of Dr.
Crippen and the IeNeve woman. It
lo'.ks as though Scotland Yard has
given up hope of detecting Crippen
and his former stenographer, with
whom he is supposed to be in hiding.
Pawnbrokers to Be Vigilant.
Scotland 'ail started out on an
other lead tody. The officers noli
led all pawn brokers in the United
Kingdom to be vigilant in accepting
a pledge from a man or woman an
swering the description of Dr. Cri-pe-n
or the wonu'n.
The reason for this is that, the po
lice say, they have reason to suspect
that Dr. Crippen did not have more
than 100 pounds in his possession
when he fled, and they argue that he
will shortly be compelled to pawn
some of Belle Elmore's Jewelry, which
cannot bt found. It is known that
Belle Elmore possessed jewels of con
siderable value.
In addition to the Crippen mystery,
Scotland Yard has two other mysteri
ous mu.ders which it has been called
upon to unravel.
Wildon Anderson, an aclor, was
shot and killed In his flat last. Satur
day night. Scotland Yard has issued
an appeal in which it asks possible
witnesses of this tragedy to disclose
themselves. Up to the present Scot-
laud Yard has not the slightest clue
to the murderer.
The other case is that of Mrs. Isa
bella Wilson, who was found slain iu
her ship. The police are without a
clue to the author of the crime.
Mr. Nash, a theatrical manager,
testified that he and his wife, who is
professionally known as Lil Haw
thorne, were friends of Belle Elmore,
He testified th it while he was in New
York he heard of the death of Miss
Elmore. He met Mine. Ginnett, the
president of the Ladles' Music Hall
Artistes' guild.
Mine. Ginnett, who had become sus
picious about the disappearance of
the Binger, had already communicated
with the American police. Mr. Nash
promised Mine. Ginnett that when he
returned to London he would take
the matter up. Accordingly, on his
arrival here on June 2S, he called on
Dr. Crippen and offered bis condo
lences.
Crippen Became Confused.
The doctor, Mr. Nash testified, was
nervous and seemed to be much de
pressed. He sobbed bitterly when
talking about his bereavement. At
first he told Mr. Nash that his wife
had died at Los Angeles. When Mr.
Nash questioned him more closely as
to the details, the doctor said she died
at a town n?ar San Francisco, the
name of which he could not remem
ber. Tho doctor declared that he had
received his wife's ashes from a cre
matory, but he could not remember
the name of the crematory and was
also unable to produce a death certi
ficate. The doctor became more and
more confused as Mr. Nash continued
his quest loning. Mr. Nash thereupon
went to Scotland Yard and laid the
caso before tbe officers.
Inspector Dow of Scotland Yard
was the next witness. lie testified
that ho vl'ilted Dr. Crippen on July 8.
At that time Crippen made a state
ment In which he declared that ho
had lied about his wife being dead.
So far as he knew, the doctor said,
she was si ill alive.
Dr. Crippen went on to say that in
the beginning of February he and his
wife had entertained a party of
friends at their home in Hilldrop
Crescent. A little Incident occurred
which displeased his wife. After the
friends had left she created a pother
'ver it, saying among other things
that she Intended io leave htm for an
other num.
Crippen told the Inspector that he
thought the man referred to was
Bruce Miller. He said he believed the
titter was In Chicago and he as
sumed that his wife was with him in
that city.

DINKS TO NECK IN QUAGMIRE
Woman' Crfe Attract Men to Lonely
Spot In Time to Save Her.
Secaucus, N. J., July 19. Mtb. Her
man Prahm, Jr., who lives on the Se
caucus rood, nearly lost her life in a
quagmire near Penn Horn creek. She
had sunk up to her neck before she
was rescued by Thomas Hoefner, a
farmer, and a number of other men.
The woman had been gathering
huckleberries and tried to take a
fchort cut to her home, when she lost
her way and wandered into tho quag
mire. As she sank slowly in the treacher
ous mud and slime she shouted for
help, and hr cries were heard by
Hoefner and by Christopher Stanton
and a gang of men under Mm who
had been at work laying a gag main
and were on their way home. It was
difficult to find the sMt whence tho
cries for aid rame, but when this had
l-cen done prompt action was taken to
save the women.
While Hoefner and several other
men waded out toward where the
woman was sinking others got a boat
and forced It through the marshes.
With the aid of a plank which had
been taken along the woman was
drugged out of the mud and brought
salely to hard groiind.
